Meghan Markle and Prince Harry mocked on South Park as they scream ‘we want privacy’ while promoting bio in cartoon
SOUTH Park has mocked Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in an episode about the ‘Prince and Princess of Canada’.
The comedy shows the couple, who are clearly modelled after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, moving to the fictional town in a bid for privacy.
The cheeky episode began with a disclaimer saying all characters – even if they’re based on real people – are fictional.
But fans were quick to point out the prince’s red hair and his wife’s floppy hat drew similarities to the duke and duchess.
In the show the pair are seen promoting the prince’s book ‘Waaagh’ which resembles Harry’s book ‘Spare’.
They then embark on a worldwide “we want privacy” tour – before moving to South Park.
As they arrive the princess is heard saying: “If we moved here, people would think we’re really serious about wanting to be normal.”
The couple hang banners above their house demanding privacy – and hold loud “privacy parties” in their front garden.
The show left Royal fans and South Park viewers shocked at how far the episode went to slam the royals.
One said: “They are definitely ripping on Harry and Meghan.”
Another added: “South Park has seriously nailed Meghan Markle & Prince Harry. #SouthPark.”
A third joked: “#SouthPark is absolutely torching Harry and Meghan right now!”
It comes after it was claimed Harry and Meghan Markle have not yet decided if they will attend the King’s coronation.
The couple are said to fear the atmosphere will be as “toxic” as it was during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and funeral.
Before agreeing to fly to the UK for the occasion, the Duke of Sussex, 38, reportedly wants to speak to dad Charles, 74, and brother William, 40, to go over the finer details and clear the air.
Harry is understood not to have had any contact with either since the release of his explosive memoir Spare last month.
A source told The Mirror: “Harry has been very clear and his position hasn’t wavered.
“He isn’t going to come if he feels the atmosphere will be as toxic as it was during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and funeral.
“He’s said he wants to reconcile with his family and it’s their call, but so far nothing has changed.”
If the Prince and Meghan, 41, do join the 2,000-strong congregation on May 6, they will do so as ‘normal’ members of the family and not take on any special role.
They will also likely be banned from the Buckingham Palace balcony appearance.
